Nani the genius scouring the depths of Italian football to unearth hiddem gems?...The real genius was the scout who in the 70s got on a bus to Southgate and came back with Alan Devonshire.

The only way we would have paid 9m for Savio is if he had broken Billy Bonds' appearance record, Vic Watson's goals tally and scored a hat-trick in the Champions League final.

I don't think we've lost our shirts on the lad and certainly not compared with wastes of space like Ljungberg, Quashie and Dyer. Big fees, big signing-on fee's, big wages and a ****ing pay-off for bloody Ljungberg.
